I have two issues that may or may not be related but they seemed to occur at the same time

I am unable to use my SBC email. I can address, forward, type in the subject and attach and send but I am unable to actually type in the text body. I have spent hours, I mean hours on the phone w/ SBC support to no avail.

Additionally I have the Aurara ABI Network virus that I can't get rid of.

I have followed all your instructions and I am at the point of posting the Hijack this log for your review.

3. Click on "Proceed"
4. Click on "Scan Now"
5. Deselect "Search for negligible risk entries" as negligible risk entries (MRU's) are not considered to be a threat.
6. Select "Search for low-risk threats"
7. Run the scanner using the Full Scan (Perform full system scan) mode.
8. When the scan has completed, select Next.
9. In the Scanning Results window, select the "Scan Summary" tab.
10. Check the box next to every "target family" for removal.
11. Click "Next", Click "OK".

Reboot your computer again

Run a second scan (With Ad-aware & VX2 Cleaner) to make sure the files have been removed from your computer

After the uninstallation, remember to delete this folder: C:\Program Files\NewDotNet\ (Or might be named New.Net)

In the event that you lose Internet access after removing New.Net, please double-click LSPFix.exe that you downloaded earlier. You will see 2 panels. If there is any file listed in the "Remove" panel on the right-side, leave it as is and just click "Finish>>" then reboot your computer and you should now have access to the Internet. If nothing is listed under the "Remove Panel", do NOT do anything - just close the program. You will need to use another computer to come back here for further instructions on what to do.

OK!!! I think we're making excellent progress!!! You guyz are the best!!!Here's my latest log per your request.

I had to do the last set of instructructions twice because I noticed O18 wasn't gone ... it is now.

I also checked my email ... I am now able to write in the body of the email.

One lingering problem (unless you spot others) ... when I log onto the internet I get a semi blank screen ... it has the toolsbars ; across the top of the screen it says about:blank - Microsoft Internet Explorer.

I then have to click on an SBC icon which takes me to the correct and active page. That page says SBC Yahoo! DSL - Microsoft Internet Explorer. ????

*IMPORTANT NOTE*CleanUp deletes EVERYTHING out of your temp/temporary folders, it does not make backups.If you have any documents or programs that are saved in any Temporary Folders, please make a backup of these before running CleanUp

Running CleanUp

Start CleanUp by double-clicking the icon on your desktop (or from the Start > All Programs menu).

When CleanUp starts go to the Options button (right side of CleanUp screen)

Move the arrow down to "Custom CleanUp!"

Now place a checkmark next to the following (Make sure nothing else is checked!):

Delete Cookies
This is optional, if you leave the box checked it will remove all of your cookies, at this point removing cookies is a good idea

Empty Recycle Bins

Delete Prefetch files

Cleanup! All Users

Click OK

Then click on the CleanUp button. This will take a short while, let it do its thing.

When asked to reboot system select No

Close CleanUp

Enable System Restore;

1. Click Start.2. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.3. Click the System Restore tab.4. Uncheck the "Turn off System Restore" check box.5. Click Apply, and then click "OK".

Then..

1) Please download the Killbox.Unzip it to the desktop but do NOT run it yet.

2) Then please reboot into Safe Mode by restarting your computer and pressing F8 as your computer is booting up. Then select the Safe Mode option.

3) Once in Safe Mode, please run Killbox.

4) Select "Delete on Reboot".

5) Open the text file with these instructions in it, and copy the file names below to the clipboard by highlighting them and pressing Control-C:

C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files\win32.exeC:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\egdi32.exeC:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\izxczxcr.exe

6) Return to Killbox, go to the File menu, and choose "Paste from Clipboard".
